The Story Behind Splinter & Bloom

A little Western, a little bohemian, a lot of soul.

Splinter & Bloom is a creative expression of art, style, and individuality, founded by Southern California artist and curator Kelly Kingman.

Born from a love of color, texture,storytelling, and the beautifully unexpected, Splinter & Bloom brings together two creative passions: original abstract art and a thoughtfully curated boutique of romantic, bohemian, and Western-inspired fashion.

The Art

As an intuitive abstract artist, I create vibrant, expressive paintings that explore the space between chaos and harmony, darkness and light, and the beauty of transformation. My work is guided by instinct, emotion, and discovery, allowing each piece to unfold in its own unexpected way.

The Boutique

With a background in costuming and a lifelong love of expressive personal style, I approach fashion much like I approach a canvas—with curiosity, imagination, and an appreciation for the unexpected.

The boutique is a carefully curated collection of clothing and accessories chosen for their character, texture, and timeless appeal. Romantic details, vintage influences, Western spirit, and bohemian freedom come together in pieces meant to be worn, loved, and made your own.

The Spirit

At its heart, Splinter & Bloom is about embracing what makes us different. It's about finding beauty in contrasts, expressing ourselves without apology, and creating a life filled with color, meaning, and a little wildness.

Whether you're drawn to a painting that speaks to your soul or a piece of clothing that feels unmistakably you, I hope you find something here that inspires you.
